I have Leica III with Voigtlander 50/2.5 Color Skopar for sale if you are interested. The Leica III is in excellent user condition and was CLA by Gerry Smith of Kindermann. The rangefinder is contrast and accurate, shutter speeds are right on. The Voigtlander 50/2.5 Color Skopar is a brand new one that I bought few months ago from Photo Village. This is an excellent combination is you are interested in. The price is $475.00 plus shipping.

I also recommend the 28 focal length. On my last family trip there, that was all

I really use.

Thanks for everyone's feedback on the Minox 35mm cameras. I took a

close look at the Minox web site about the GT-E and GT-X. Based on

their drawing of the lens diagrams, the the two lenses have different

design. Is this just an error of their web publishing or the lenses

are different?

Thanks!

I am interested in getting a small range finder camera with a good 35mm lens for traveling and Minox GT-E and GT-X seem to fit that purpose very well. I would appreciate some help on the following questions:

1. How easy is it to get accurate focus with the range finder?

2. Are they any differences between GT-E and GT-X other than auto DX code? (from Minox and B&H's web sites, this seems to be the only difference)

3. Any recommendations on which on to get?

Thanks for the help and I enjoy this forum very much!

I have used 35mm (Nikon system) for the past 15 years and wanted to get

into the medium format for some times (although I used medium format TLR

when I was about 15 years old but quickly moved into 35mm).

Since I have been a Nikon user, a happy one, I would like to consider

getting into Zeiss optics for medium format. I looked Hasselbald 503

and could not make up my mind. I like Rollei 6003 system's spec and

price (though expensive), but have not heard much comments in this

digest. If I do decide to go with Rollei, I would get the 6003 kit

first, then add a 50mm and 180mm in the future.

I would like to hear some advises, comments, and experience about the

Rollei 6003. Is it a good choice for a starter with limited

experience? One of the concerns that I have is that if Rollei is a

reliable camera system. (I never have had any serious problem with my

two Nikon bodies and several Nikkor lenses in the past 15 years) Or if

Hasselbald 503 is a better choice than Rollei 6003 for a starter like

me, knowing that they are different type of MF bodies.

Thanks in advance for the help!
